Defending National Champs Are Pre-Season No. 1

BALTIMORE, Md. – The team that won the last national title has been ranked No. 1 in the 2019 pre-season poll. Yale, coming off its first NCAA Championship, has been placed atop the Top 25 of Inside Lacrosse's Face-Off Yearbook.

The Bulldogs, who had a school-best 17-3 record and the program's first perfect Ivy slate since 1956, ran the table last May in the NCAAs against UMass, Loyola, Albany and Duke.
